Sovietschat (no bid) vs Ichado

I don’t know if you saw my earlier message…but I was saying I’d play until you had the chance to roll out Japan this turn. You need the satisfaction of earning a victory just as much as anyone else!

I messed up not landing planes in range of japan (Hong Kong)…plus it didn’t help that the 3 subs failed to take out the transport at Hawaii. Needed that to give me 1 more turn to get India, then turn back to warmer waters.

I will concede if/when Japan falls this turn. Well played in advance.

1 Kamikaze to prevent shore bombardments if you bring a cruiser or battleship…ect.

Well, let me check the board first before conceding; If I think there’s a chance Germany could get Moscow while holding the US back I might play on.

Let me table that decision first please.

I meant, let me study the board real quick before conceding after japan because I might be able to make it due to already having the Cairo victory city. Of course we’re going to see the Japan battle :)

Russia won’t get much help from the UK in terms of fighters…but I do know when it’s time to call it quits…so don’t worry about me dragging it on too long.

So, let’s play through…who knows, maybe your pilots throw a whiff the first round on japan and it’s barely held by 1 fighter left.

But still, I think I might be able to push Russia back and maybe get Moscow before it’s too late. That’s what I mean, have to see.
